Chapter 380 It's still fun
In General Dushi's office, Zhang Cheng was meeting with two Mongolian warriors in private. These two were more prominent members of the Mongolian guard cavalry team secretly recruited by Su Yiyang, and they were about to be promoted to captain of the guard.

In fact, there have always been Mongolian cavalry in the border towns of the Ming Dynasty, which means that the last famous general Man Gui, and the current generals such as Hu Dawei and Meng Ruhu are descendants of the Mongolian nationality. After returning to the Ming Dynasty, they enlisted After joining the army, he was promoted to the commander-in-chief.

The Mongols are better at peeing on horseback, and they are good at riding and fighting. They are the best cavalry in the border towns, especially good at riding and shooting, and they are brave and unstoppable. Therefore, the generals of the border towns also like to recruit Mongolian knights.

The reason why Zhang Cheng is so covert is that the Mongols outside the Great Wall have all belonged to the Qing Emperor Huang Taiji at this time. At this time, if he blatantly recruits the Mongols at this time, he may be put on small shoes by someone who has a heart, so he temporarily concealed his actions.

Now, looking at the two kneeling on the ground, he said loudly: "Both of you get up, tonight only drink and eat meat, no distinction is made between seniority and inferiority."

"Thank you, Master!"

Suhebalu and Mo Zhigen stood up, returned to their seats, and continued to eat and drink.

Only then did Zhang Cheng carefully observe the two of them. They were not tall, but they were even more powerful. They had a round waist and a broad body, as strong as a calf.

He asked Su Yiyang again: "How many such warriors have been recruited?"

"Return to the commander-in-chief, the current Guihua City is completely controlled by Jiannu. Although the left and right wings of Tumote are still stationed here, they have no ability to self-determination, and Jiannu is using Guihua City to fight against me. The forts in the town carry out mutual market trade.

The various tribes of Tumed Mongolia dared not speak out. Although the leaders at the top did not dare to reveal anything, the herdsmen below complained quite a bit. The villain has come into contact with some small tribes these two times.

Their lives are very difficult, and Jiannu exploits them day by day. Therefore, villains and others are very welcome to go to trade. There are also many warriors like Suhe Paris and Mo Zhigen in various tribes .

The villain has now recruited 32 Mongolian warriors, they are temporarily acting as caravan guards, waiting for the command of the commander, and then make other arrangements. "Su Yiyang replied.

Zhang Cheng had just eaten a mouthful of meat, and was chewing carefully. He was not in a hurry to speak. He picked up the wine glass and chewed the mutton. Looking at Suhebalu and Mo Zhigen over there, he seemed to be thinking about something.

After a long time, he said: "Su Yiyang, although those small tribes cannot be ignored, after you get in touch, send other people to follow up. As long as he is willing to be friends with me, I will not spare money or food.

In addition, you need to find out the situation in Guihua City as soon as possible. Guluge and Hanggao, as the commanders of the two-winged flags, may not be easy to get in touch with, but everyone in the world loves money and food, so you just need to put more thought into it.

If there are any more, I have to investigate, besides these two, who else can be used by me, I must try to take them down, bury a few more strings, so that the kite will not be lost, you understand this principle. "

He paused, and then said: "Warriors like Ba Lu and Mo Zhigen, if they are willing to serve my commander, the more the better, and I will never begrudge money and food to support them. If they make military achievements in the future , the rewards will never be less.

He will temporarily stay in the caravan as a guard, and you will be in charge of arranging an interpreter to teach him Chinese. First recruit a hundred riders, and give him two commanding fifty riders each. Compile one to enrich the ranger's combat power. "

"Yes, the villain has written it all down."

"By the way, is there any news from the Zheng family in southern Fujian?" Zhang Cheng asked again.

"Returning to Commander-in-Chief, Southern Fujian is far away, and the Zheng family specializes in maritime trade. He lives in a coastal area, and it is not easy to contact him. This matter is a bit difficult. The villain has sent two caravans to Southern Fujian for contact. It is estimated that in the past few days Information will be sent back in the next day.”

Zhang Cheng raised his glass and took a sip of strong wine, and said: "The Zheng family is good at sea trade and has strong financial resources, but it is located in the south of the Yangtze River, and this commander is good at land warfare, and is located in the extreme northern frontier, so the north and the south depend on each other, and we have both water and land. , you have to tell the Zheng family what I mean."

"Yes, the villain has written it down."

Only then did Zhang Cheng turn his head and look at Suhebalu and Mo Zhigen again. They were still enjoying their meal, their faces were already flushed, like a monkey's butt.

Zhang Cheng looked at Su Yiyang again, and said, "I have heard that Mongolian names have their own unique meanings. I don't know what this Su, Balu, and Mo Zhigen mean?"

"Returning to the commander is Suhebalu, which means fierce tiger; Mozhigen means sharp archer. The two of them are indeed worthy of their names. When Suhebalu was fighting, he charged bravely, and every time In front of the battle, it is indeed like a tiger,

And Mo Zhigen's riding and shooting is even more exquisite. Although he does not say that he hits every shot, he is also extremely accurate, and he specializes in shooting people's eyes and other weak and unprotected places. Anyone who hits his arrows is almost useless! "

"Okay, such a warrior is exactly what this commander lacks!"

As he spoke, he raised his wine glass and said to Suhebalu and Mo Zhigen: "You two warriors, are you willing to follow this commander from now on? hungry."

They have come into contact with more Han people since they were naturalized for a long time, and they have been escorting Su Yiyang and Diao Dacheng's caravan recently. Yu can already understand Chinese, but they still speak incoherently.

At this time, upon hearing Zhang Cheng's question, the two of them got up hurriedly, cupped their fists and bowed, "Suhebalu and Mo Zhigen are willing to follow the commander."

Suhebalu, who was stronger and stronger, went on to say: "Although we are grassland herdsmen, the weather has been unfavorable in recent years, it is not easy to graze, the livestock has not increased but decreased, and life is also difficult. It is better to follow the commander in battle. At any rate, I'll fight to the death."

Zhang Cheng smiled and said: "Following the commander in chief, there are various military regulations and restrictions, and you must obey them. As for fighting on the battlefield, those who die are cowards. A real warrior will only kill the enemy How could you be a ghost yourself?"

"Hahaha……"

There was a burst of hearty laughter in the room.

Zhang Cheng said again: "Balu, Mo Zhigen, today I will respect you for a bowl of wine. After drinking this bowl of wine, the two of you are under my command. Invite me to the army, I will never let you and others go hungry again."

"Dry!"

Everyone yelled loudly and drank the spirits in their cups, all grinning and gasping.

Zhang Cheng took out the Yunzhou brand cigarettes, took out one himself, handed the cigarette case to Chen Zhong, and said, "Chen Zhong, give it to everyone."

After Chen Zhong got up to take it, he gave one to Su Yiyang first, then went to Suhebalu and Mo Zhigen and handed the cigarettes. He took out a box of Beizhaguan brand cigarettes from his pocket.

He first took out one and handed it to Mo Zhigen, then took another one in his hand, and said: "Thank you for the reward, Commander, I still enjoy it!"

Chen Zhong shook his head with a wry smile on his face, then looked at Zhang Cheng, seeing that he also shook his head and smiled wryly.
